Chapter 799: A Farce

~8 min read 1,512 words

As the apex of the Great Void, the Dao Lord Level is special.

It can be said that even if Li Heng were to exhaust all his Source Power right now, and express it in the form of a brief eruption, his combat power would likely only be able to rival a Dao Lord for a short time.

This is not because the essence of his Source Power is inferior to a Dao Lord's, nor is it because an infinite amount of Source Power is required to truly advance to the Dao Lord realm. Rather, it is because the amount of Source Power required to forcibly elevate one's own realm to reach that of a Dao Lord is an unimaginably large number.

Although this number is finite, for Li Heng at present, it is no different from being infinite. Any known finite growth rate cannot even reach the boundary of this number.

However, Li Heng does not find this strange.

Although he previously obtained an experience card for Above Dao Lord and experienced it briefly, this does not mean he has any contempt for Dao Lords or the power they possess.

On the contrary, it is precisely because he once possessed that perspective.

That he is all the more clear about the Terror of a Dao Lord.

If the currently known Great Void were compared to a book, then what would a Dao Lord be? The omniscient and omnipotent being set within this book? The background board that constitutes this book? The formative elements? The source of its ideas?

Or perhaps, even the author of this book?

And then continue to iterate and upgrade infinitely upwards?

But these concepts are merely painting a pale portrait of a Dao Lord.

A Dao Lord is far above that.

Therefore, to reach such a supreme existence, even someone like him, whose skin is as thin as paper, would choose to cheat with a clear conscience, because one simply cannot fight without cheating.

But cheating also requires a method.

He, Li, does not need to bankrupt himself to briefly erupt with Dao Lord Level combat power using Source Power. Therefore, he intends to fleece the Great Void once more...

"Fellow Daoist, this joke of yours is a bit too heavy."

The figure's expression suddenly turned cold.

As a remnant of a Dao Lord's traces, although he was initially unclear about the concept of "cheating," he would know it the moment he wished to. Therefore, he now fully understood the meaning behind this "cheating." But did this not also symbolize that this person had no ability at all to resolve that Terror?

Otherwise, why ask for help from an even stronger Unknown power?

After all, you say you are cheating, so you are cheating?

How can you prove you are not just blowing hot air?

"Too impatient, calm down."

Li Heng shook his head and tapped the Great Void lightly, causing ripples in space to oscillate. Following the invisible veins and the profound connections of Causality, he immediately knocked the Great Void Will out.

"Eh, this, hmm? How did I manifest specifically?"

At the spot Li Heng tapped, a ball of light suddenly appeared, suspended in the air, emitting confused and doubtful mental fluctuations, quite surprised by its own appearance.

"Of course, it was I who summoned you, Great Void Will."

Li Heng smiled, squinting his eyes.

"Li Heng? You were the one who brought me out?!"

Seeing Li Heng speak thus, the ball of light shrieked, even more surprised. "Are you sure that was a summoning? Why do I feel like I just popped out suddenly? What did you do!"

The tone of the Great Void Will changed from shock to seriousness.

If Li Heng had set up a grand altar, communicated with the heart of heaven, and offered some sacrifices to attract his attention, he wouldn't mind descending for a bit; after all, he and Li Heng had some dealings.

But what is this supposed to be now?

Popping out suddenly just because Li Heng gave a casual tap?

Like a local deity knocked out by a monkey with a staff.

Does he, the dignified Great Void Will, have no face left?

"I didn't do anything. Isn't it just through the summoning of Causality in the dark? Perhaps you didn't notice. But now is not the time to dwell on this; I have serious business with you."

Li Heng feigned confusion, waved his hand, and then his expression turned serious.

The Great Void Will fell into deep thought upon hearing this.

Is that so?

He recalled the moment just now and traced back the past. He discovered that it was indeed the thread of Causality between him and this Li Heng that had been touched, and he had responded to the summons, descending and manifesting.

... Is it really like that? Why did he descend without a second thought, without thinking it over?

He always felt something was wrong somewhere.

But he couldn't remember what was wrong.

Could it be that he has been mentally exhausted from dealing with those Disaster monsters lately? Hmm, perhaps that is possible. Sigh, there is really no benefit to being born with sentience.

Busy running around, and now he even gets tired.

Li Heng watched the Great Void Will, who was still lost in doubt, and couldn't help but laugh secretly. Did it really think his power was so easy to take?

"Forget it, what business do you have with me? Could it be that you want to advance to Dao Lord now and head to the Mountain and Sea Great World? That's not right, though; your accumulation is not yet sufficient."

The ball of light of the Great Void Will emitted a hum.

"Fellow Daoist Li, that is quite enough! If you have no ability to resolve that Terror, you could have just left this Reality; why pretend to be mysterious in front of me? Creating a ball of light and pretending it is the Great Void Will is simply ridiculous!"

"Great Void Will? Not to mention whether the Great Void has a will, even if it did, that is an existence that even the Dao Lord level finds difficult to contact; how could it be at your beck and call?"

At this moment, the figure spoke up to interrupt, sounding somewhat angry.

He had originally thought that since this Li Daoren possessed the aura of a Dao Lord, he should be a reliable person, and even if he couldn't resolve the crisis of this Reality, he could provide some help.

But now it seems he is nothing more than a boaster.

He has truly seen enough of this farce.

Li Heng raised an eyebrow, waved his hand, and spoke helplessly.

"It seems your Great Void Will truly has no dignity at all. Look, someone is already denying your identity as the Great Void Will; it is truly quite pitiful."

"What, you don't like him, so you want to borrow a knife to kill?"

The Great Void Will hummed, seemingly not falling for it.

But the next moment, an invisible force directly imprisoned the figure.

"Since when can the traces left behind by the Order Dao Lord question me? If not for the Order Dao Lord's contributions to the Great Void, you should have dissipated with the wind by now to atone for this sin."

The voice of the Great Void Will echoed in the figure's ears.

Cold sweat streamed down the figure.

He wanted to struggle, but discovered that no matter what, he could not move at all.

This power, this supreme power.

Could it be...

At this moment, the Great Void Will continued to speak, looking toward Li Heng.

"Speak, what is your business? I am very busy, do not waste time. You have no idea how many things I, having birthed a will, have to handle."

"Oh, that would be to trouble you to empower me once more; this time, the Dao Lord realm will suffice, there is no need for Above Dao Lord."

Li Heng said with a smile.

"That is impossible."

The Great Void Will flatly refused.

"The power I provide to you can be doubled again."

Li Heng said.

The Great Void Will fell into a long silence; this condition seemed to hold great temptation for him. However, in the end, he still spoke, "That won't do either!"

"Then what exactly do you want?"

Li Heng asked.

"It is not a question of what I want, but as the Great Void Will, I cannot just agree to whatever you ask for; otherwise, where would I put my face?"

"Otherwise, why don't you take this position and be it yourself?"

"Furthermore, given the current situation, I need to concentrate my power; it is truly difficult to spare Dao Lord Level power to empower you."

The Great Void Will said helplessly.

"Oh, so you're just being difficult, then fine."

Li Heng nodded.

"Then how about doubling it again?"

"Hm? That much?"

"No, can you really bring that out?"

The Great Void Will was completely stunned...
